Since January 7, Bucha and Kyiv opened 2 new points for heating citizens who suffered from the war. The initiators of the Yurt of invincibility project are the Kazakh diaspora in Ukraine. Each room has at least 60 m2. There are generators, warm drinks, and a place to relax. Yurt is made and covered with carpets, which are used in Kazakhstan in the cold time. Also, the organizers opened a mini-exhibition of national clothes.
The project is expanded because power supply problems will be a long-term consequence due to Russian attacks. Kazakh diaspora in Ukraine plans to install yurts in Odesa, Kharkiv, Cherkasy, and Lviv.
It is worth mentioning that a Kazakh businessman joined the project of ordinary people who live in Ukraine. Entrepreneur Daulet Nurzhanov, a member of the group of companies Kusto Group, bought yurts and organized delivery to Ukraine. Businessman takes 39th place in Forbes Kazakhstan rating. In addition, the embassy of Kazakhstan in Ukraine and people’s deputy Serhii Nagorny joined the yurt project.
By the way, Russia did not appreciate such a step. The government of Kazakhstan has received from the ministry of external affairs of Russia an application for an official explanation of participation in such a project in Ukraine. The official representative foreign Ministry of the Republic of Kazakhstan Aybek Smadiarov said that they are proud of the yurts, and the project is a private initiative of everyone.
